My Job and the people

I work at a call center/ support for the Government and Military doing DTSand I was walking this person through fixing java issues to log in, after trying everything I asked them if they wanted to download Chrome and use that instead of IE and they told me no.

it all groups together, government computers almost always only have IE so when these people do this stuff from their homes there scared to use anything other than IE which totally sucks *** in my opinion.

Yes Google Chrome is better than I.E, but like Renjr84 said most government computers only have I.E and people don't have permission to download and install programs like that. So I would have told you no too... Luckily I've never had to use DTS... but I know here at work it is not loved...

I have been using chrome since it's launch. However my company only allows IE, because of confidential stuff they have all the knots tied for IE and it would be too much trouble for them to recreat everything for EI. It's the unfortunate price we pay for using microsoft. They will give us IE and since it's default, it's easier (read lazier) to keep it.

Chrome is the best browser to date. Firefoz runs as close second with the proper addons, however if given the option, I'll go with chrome. Always.

We could argue about that. How is Firefox better than Chrome? Firefox gets better (not better than) with addons and extensions, but this also slows it down quite a bit. Chrome itself is already top notch. Add in Adblock, WOT and you are done. Fastest, lightest, most reliable browser to date.

Prime example: when i access firstrowsports they tell you not to use i/e. I used to use firefox to stream videos, but would still have problems with connections or accessing links.
since i've begun using chrome i have not had any issues with that site at all. And have not had issues with links freezing up.

I'm with ya here. What's funny is that my company puts all of our web defaults to IE, but then they send out an email to our customers telling them that if possible, please avoid using our web interface through IE.

IE is an abomination. I work for a web design company and IE is the only browser that ever gives us any trouble. However, I have recently developed a personal loathing for Google Chrome. When I open up a new tab, the page loads fine. However, if use that same tab to go to a different page, I will just get a slow spinning circle and either the page will finally load after about 30 seconds to a minute or it will not load at all. I have to close the tab, open up a new one and go to the page. The worst has been certain pages not loading at all for no reason. They work fine in any other browser, including IE, but won't load in Chrome.

So I use Firefox, or Opera. Lately it's been mostly Opera.

Cool trick with Chrome though, open it and press Ctrl+Shift+N for incognito mode. Handy if you are needing to do personal stuff on a computer that is not yours and you don't want to go through and remember to sign out of everything and delete all of the cookies, history, and other crap.

IE let in so many virus on my old lap top that it did exactly what your talking about on Chrome once in a while. Now I have a new lap top started out with Google Chrome from the beginning and runs like a machine.

I don't think it's a virus in my case. My computer is pretty clean. I scan it regularly for viruses, malware, spyware, tupperware, and underwear.
